Ike – Super Smash Saturday 18

Its Saturday again! Ike is pretty much my main character in Super Smash Bros, and he’s awesome in the Fire Emblem games too! Whenever I used to play a Fire Emblem game, my sister and I would always make up voices for the characters! So at one point, Ike probably had a weird accent from …

Pokemon Trainer – Super Smash Saturday 17

Wow, can’t believe it’s already November! Halloween just passed, and now the rest of this year is going to go by in hyperdrive. This weekend I have a booth at Tucson Comicon, but was able to finish the Pokemon Trainer earlier in the week. Of course, I made Ash, probably the most well known Pokemon …

Falco – Super Smash Saturday 16

Meta Knight – Super Smash Saturday 15

This week is Meta Knight! It was another interesting one to make, but I’m pretty happy with how it came out. For the mask area, I used fabric on top of felt. I had wanted to use felt for the entire thing, but didn’t have the right gray color. So, since I had fabric on …

Yoshi – Super Smash Saturday 13

So this week was supposed to be Pit, but I had to switch things up a little bit. Instead, this week is Yoshi! I followed the wonderful pattern by AmiAmour, you can find the pattern here. This pattern is easy to follow and pretty ingenious! Here are some pictures of how it turned out: I …

Zelda – Super Smash Saturday 12

Its Princess Zelda this week! I know this is a dual character (also Sheik), but I’m thinking I might make Sheik instead of Toon Link when the time comes. There were a ton of details for Zelda’s dress, which I did my best to simplify and include. The next character is Pit! This event is …

Safety Eyes and Alternatives

When I first started crochet, I couldn’t help but feel like my amigurumi was missing something. They felt somehow incomplete, and as I continued I realized it was the eyes. I had been using felt, which I do still use occasionally, but at the time it wasn’t giving my work the finished look I wanted …

Luigi – Super Smash Saturday 10

Phew, another week down! This week its Luigi, and I used the same pattern I made for Mario. Once again, felt is awesome for small details and complex shapes, like the little yellow buttons for Luigi’s overalls, or his mustache! The next character is Diddy Kong! This event is a CAL/weekly challenge, so if anyone …
